Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed advertisement on public safety
  • The effect of the proposed advertisement on amenity

What decided it

The size and position of the proposed advertisement would unacceptably distract drivers at a particularly sensitive section of the A13 carriageway where maximum attention is required when joining or navigating slip roads, thereby failing the public safety assessment under the Control of Advertisements Regulations.
